also, thank you for kicking my chemo brain in the butt. ;-)

yes, i forgot about X being the wise and wondrous now.

iirc, there used to be a file under /etc/X11 that had specs for
keyboard, mouse, graphics card, monitor, language, etc, that one
could make custom changes to if needed. several years back that
got changed with auto probe. yes/no?

therefore, my only real concern would be for progs like firefox,
thunderbird and what else that is not standard with distrib, and
have special files in /lib, /lib64, etc. y/n?

as for icons and KDE configs, icons should be same as they are
under /usr/share and i do want to have same/similar desktop window
settings.

long story to short, just try it. y/n?
